Show Notes
Today I talk with the Kiwi Bitcoin Builders. This New Zealand-based group connects people working on various Bitcoin projects, from tools for merchant acceptance of Bitcoin, through to mining businesses, Bitcoin meetups, education, and even developing on the lightning network.
In this episode we have a general catchup on various projects we are working on as well as hear from two members of the group, Rob Clarkson, and Simon Collins who discuss their chance to be speakers at the recent Bitcoin Alive event in Sydney.
If you are a Bitcoin builder working on something, whether it tech-based or not, please get in touch.
